Happy National Novel Writing Month — Now Get Cracking (NaNoWriMo.org)

November is National Novel Writing Month — or NaNoWriMo (no, we’re not kidding). There is an official website and a challenge to write a 50,000-word novel (that’s about 175 pages) by month’s end. The event is organized by the Berkeley, California-based non-profit Office of Letters and Light.
